"What did Bai Fei say?" Su Jingyao's voice was still unhurried.
"Princess Bai is a concubine, but she is criticizing the Third Prince. As the Third Prince's mother, I naturally cannot tolerate this."
As Lin Miaoyin spoke, tears began to fall and she started to cry.
"Empress, I know that my Third Prince is not as noble as the First Prince, but he is also your Majesty's child. How can I tolerate Concubine Bai's insults?"
She was crying so hard that her eyes were filled with tears and her body was shaking slightly.
"Empress, the Imperial Concubine is slandering me. I have never said anything bad about the Third Prince. The Imperial Concubine is slandering me."
Concubine Bai directly fought back and refused to admit that she had talked about the prince.
Lin Miaoyin glared at Bai Fei with eyes wide open, her eyes seemed to be spitting fire, and she felt hatred in her heart: This Bai Fei used to pretend to be weak and gentle, but it turns out she is just a wolf in sheep's clothing!
Su Jingyao continued to ask: "Does the Imperial Concubine have any evidence to prove that Concubine Bai was talking about the prince?"
Lin Miaoyin's expression changed instantly.
It was impossible for Concubine Bai to discuss the prince in public. She only spoke to her. Even when she said that the Third Prince was not good, he was very close to her, and the palace maids around her might not have heard it clearly.
Now that Lin Miaoyin thinks about it, Bai Fei must have planned it long ago!
First, she made things difficult for the palace maids for a whole year, and even talked about and ridiculed her behind her back with other sisters in the palace from time to time, which made her dissatisfied with Concubine Bai for a long time.
Today, Bai Fei pretended to meet her by chance again and insulted the Third Prince directly, just to let her vent all her anger. She beat Bai Fei, so she is not right without evidence!
Lin Miaoyin originally thought that if the Queen could not handle the matter impartially, she would go to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother did not show any obvious bias, and Lin Miaoyin only asked for fairness.
But now...
"The Imperial Concubine is silent. Does that mean she admits that she framed Concubine Bai?"
Su Jingyao picked up the teacup, gently skimmed off the foam with the lid, and took a sip gracefully.
"No, Queen, I don't have any!"
"Whether Bai Fei talked about the prince, the Imperial Concubine cannot provide evidence, but there is solid evidence that the Imperial Concubine beat the concubine. She is confined to her room for a month and must copy the palace rules fifty times."
Su Jingyao put down the teacup with a cold expression.
Lin Miaoyin didn't expect that the queen would convict her so easily.
"Empress, how can you convict so easily? You and Bai Fei are in the same group, and you are on Bai Fei's side!"
Lin Miaoyin's eyes were red and her voice sounded aggrieved.
"The Imperial Concubine falsely accuses the Queen, and her crime is even more serious. She will be demoted to the rank of Concubine."
Su Jingyao said coldly, stabbing straight at Lin Miaoyin.
Lin Miaoyin froze for a moment, her body swaying.
However, Bai Fei openly gave a mocking smile, feeling proud and pleased.
Those who bully others will eventually be bullied. She was just giving them a taste of their own medicine.
"If Concubine Lin is not satisfied with my decision, you can go to the Cining Palace to meet the Queen Mother in person. But you must know that the Phoenix Seal is in my hands."
"You can also go to meet His Majesty. You should also know that His Majesty is a husband who has a deep love for me."
Su Jingyao's voice was neither hurried nor slow, yet it was full of authority.
Lin Miaoyin bit her lower lip. The Queen was telling her clearly that no one would help her, no matter whether it was the Queen Mother or His Majesty!
"Concubine Bai was wronged today. Concubine Lin was able to frame me. I believe she also framed you. I will tell His Majesty what happened today and confer the title of Concubine De on you."
The surprise on Bai Fei's face was not concealed at all, her eyes lit up instantly, and her eyebrows and eyes were filled with joy.
I didn't expect this benefit.
"I thank the Queen for her grace."
Bai Yingyue was so excited that she saluted immediately, her voice trembling with excitement.
She actually became one of the four concubines!
She has a good relationship with the queen in the harem, and the Bai family has also been promoted by the Su family. In the future, her Bai family may also have a place in the capital.
